Puppy Preschool is composed of three, forty minute sessions and is designed with socialization in mind! Did you know that puppies have a “critical period” for socialization that ends around 16 weeks of age? If is so important for your puppy’s  ling-termed mental health and well-being that they are properly socialized while they’re still in this period. That’s where Puppy Preschool comes in! In this class, we will expose your puppy to new people, sounds, smells and textures. Bring them in to learn in a safe and welcoming environment to help avoid some common behavior problems later in life. With rolling admission it’s easy to get started as soon as you bring your new puppy home!
